Inside Sports Diplomacy
CPD invites you to watch our immersive documentary: Inside Sports Diplomacy: A 360° View of Korean Peacebuilding through PyeongChang 2018.
This story—produced with 360-degree video technology—is the result of a CPD partnership with JOVRNALISM (VR journalism) to send a VR storytelling team to South Korea during the country's unique opportunity to showcase its culture and peacebuilding efforts through sports diplomacy.
The CPD-JOVRNALISM team traveled throughout Seoul and eastward to rural Olympic host cities PyeongChang and Gangneung, conducting interviews with local residents and capturing their hometowns and workplaces—including the DMZ—in 360-degree views. You can view five immersive postcards from this project.
In one interview, a South Korean attendee of the 2018 Winter Games notes, "Most South Koreans wish peace, not only on the Korean Peninsula, but also in the world. I hope this region can serve as a bedrock for world peace."
